The space

LIVING ROOM
You have a warm welcome when you step through the front door into this cosy living room with a couple of sofas, occasional tables, and a TV tucked into the corner. A door opens onto the staircase and there's an opening to the kitchen/breakfast room, making the cottage a very sociable space with hard flooring throughout.

KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM
Retaining old world charm with everything you need to cater at home (or nip out for something from one of the many take-aways close by) - an electric oven with separate grill and four ring hob, a dishwasher, a Nespresso coffee machine (please bring your own pods, standard size), a kettle, and a toaster. A couple of chairs invite you to sit and chat to whilst preparing meals and there's a table with four chairs by the doors to the garden.

FIRST FLOOR
The stairs are quite steep (as shown on the photo) with a hand rail to steady you as you rise to the dressing area where there's a dressing table and stool which could double up as a desk if needs be, and a wardrobe so you have space to unpack and settle in. Doors open to the bedroom and bathroom.

BEDROOM
Decorated in restful colours, this pretty room has a king size bed between bedside tables, a chest of drawers, with a chair and little table in the corner - ideal for morning coffee.

BATHROOM
This lovely light room has a bath under the skylight with a hand-held shower over it and a screen, a wash basin, and a WC.

OUTSIDE

There's a quaint and peaceful courtyard style garden at the back which is accessed from the kitchen and has a table and chairs as well as a couple of bar stools by the little 'Shed & Barrel' bar so remember to bring your own drinks!

A clean and comfortable house in a good location and with everything provided. No problems with the accommodation at all which I would give 5 stars. I am, however, concerned that Air B&B seems to have subcontracted it lettings to the company 'Stay in Suffolk' so that the little house where I stayed in Leiston seems to have 11,000 reviews and I find myself reviewing the managing company rather than the property itself. This does not seem helpful for users. Nor am I impressed with Stay in Suffolk's policies of charging extra fees for a fan, for an early check in and a late check out. All of which seem greedy and user hostile. I feel this could be better managed and made more friendly to holidaymakers - especially as the accommodation charges are already high at £120 per night.

Enjoyed our stay in this little cottage in Leiston. Was very pleased with all the amenities - particularly in the kitchen where the cupboards were well stocked with utensils and pans for cooking. The lovely little courtyard garden was particularly a bonus for the cat, who travelled with me, and was able to sit outside safely self-contained. Would recommend and would visit again.
